T<\/em>he year started with interesting business trips to Italy and Germany with our Sales and Procurement Director, Syed Shah, meeting key partners and collaborators in the region.<\/p>\nAs we approached springtime, Optimistic launched new videos reflecting on the hard work of the team with special messages focusing on essential key components of our business by both the CEO, Professor Bruno Valverde Cota, and Syed Shah, Sales and Procurement Director.<\/p>\n
Well into spring and after the easter celebrations, the Optimistic team had the chance to attend the Lisbon Energy Summit. The gathering proved to be fruitful for the business with meetings taking place with some of our key partners who could not miss the nice weather in our beautiful country, and, of course, the key insightful discussion at the Summit.<\/p>\n
As we delve into the second semester of the year, loads are happening at Optimistic. We are currently holding talks to enter new international markets, namely in South America and Asia, and we continue our efforts to improve Optimistic\u2019s role in the future of the hydrogen supply chain by producing highly efficient reciprocating compressors.<\/p>\n
We continue our journey to decrease our carbon footprint and collaborate with partners involved in decarbonization.<\/p>\n
After summer, our entire team deserves a well-rested break, Optimistic will put all its effort into attending some key industry events around the world. From September onwards, our team will be present at Gastech in Houston, USA followed by the Oil and Gas Summit in Rio de Janeiro, and later in the year, we will be attending ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n
We look forward to the second semester of the year and we look forward to continuing to collaborate and work closely with you.<\/p>\n
See you soon! And in the meantime, we wish you an enjoyable summertime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
